One more thing - when I worked for a nursing home that had locations in several states, we were required to ask for a SS card if they did not provide one for the I-9. The reason? NOT to verify eligibility to work, mind you. Some government agency…

Can you please tell me where you found that? I have been looking through the Employer's Handbook at [url]http://uscis.gov/graphics/lawsregs/handbook/hand_emp.pdf[/url] and it says on p.29 of the handbook (but p.31 of the document): Document List C…

I haven't heard anything about it being "illegal" to copy the SS card. Could be a policy thing to protect against identity theft? Who knows. I did hear that it is "illegal" to accept a laminated SS card, though. If you look on the back, it says …

Abby, was your mom an English teacher? :>) Great explanation! As for me, I just use the abbreviation HR and call it good.

Welcome to the forum, jphillips! The thread Popeye is referring to can be found here: [url]http://www.hrhero.com/employersforum/DCForumID14/6448.html[/url] It explains how to search and hopefully find what you need. Feel free to e-mail me if you…

Sounds like you're on the right track! I didn't purchase anything regarding SMART goals - although I'm back in the for-profit world, I still have a non-profit frame of mind. I just went on the internet and searched and pirated what I thought was g…

Gosh, Abby, you ask a lot of good questions. We do have a goal section, and last year's review training was on SMART goals (see end of this post for that). We usually just do achieved or not achieved, but I have occasionally seen one that states i…

We just went through a phase where our president decided he wasn't seeing enough effort put into reviews, but didn't really communicate that with anyone. The supervisors were frustrated because the reviews kept coming back for revision, the preside…

I just sent you an e-mail - let me know if you didn't get it.

We're manufacturing, and we use the Wonderlic Personnel Test Form II. (It's kind of a logic test - quite a bit of math.) I like it because it gives us an idea - it isn't the be-all, end-all. The interview, previous experience, and that all-import…
-
I just e-mailed a form to you. Forgot to tell you that we used to use four-part paper to print it on, so that one copy went to payroll, one to HR, one to supervisor, and one to employee. Now, I print it on regular paper and copy if needed - there …

Here's our policy for a different point of view: Visitors In The Workplace Due to safety and confidentiality concerns, please note that all (company name) facilities are closed to all visitors unless they have prior approval from the President or p…

Hi, Donna, I'd be glad to share the survey with you. Your e-mail icon is disabled, though - would you click on my e-mail icon and e-mail me so I can reply? Also, I'm on my way to Oklahoma for a wedding, so it will be next week before I am back in …

I sent it - let me know if it didn't make it.

Nat, I have one that is moderately applicable (we're manufacturing). Let me know your e-mail (you can e-mail me directly) and I'll send it to you.

Our "local" OFCCP office was extremely helpful to me. I say "local" because it's in Omaha, 3 hours away. They had me come in and spent a few hours with me, going over lots of details. They made sure I had their contact info when I left, so I coul…

I have just let sleeping dogs lie . . . especially since we have a few people who have practically been here longer than, well, applications have existed in modern practice. :>) I do have a few that have obviously been lost, and I also have som…

In my previous nonprofit life, (don't have a copy of the handbook), we said that failure to provide adequate notice (2 wks for non-exempt, 4 wks for exempt) would result in being ineligible for rehire. I suppose there could be a line about miscondu…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 04-13-05 AT 10:57AM (CST)[/font][br][br]I used this one, Don, and got this response: Hello, Thanks so much for getting back with me. Does this mean that I don't fit the needed requirements or are you s…

Abby, I've had great luck getting straight answers from the NE DOL Wage and Hour people. Here's what the web site says. Interestingly, they all list the same phone number - must be national now. I thought I was able to call the Omaha office direc…
-
Abby, you might check with your state DOL office. Vacation is not even required by federal law, so it depends on what MO does. Don's wording is good - in my non-profit former life, we did not pay vacation if employees did not give the required not…
-
Not sure if this will help, but this is how I've handled for what I've had to do. Note that it is not a "finish in a couple of days" process, it has to sit for a while. Start with one process, and go through it in your mind, writing out each step.…

I can't answer you specifically as to whether there are changes, but I have had good luck utilizing our local Department of Labor office - in Nebraska, it's called Workforce Development. I've also been able to download and print posters from their …

> witnessed refusals to sign Don, what's the deal there? It's then a confirmation that they received the handbook and are aware/should be aware of policies?

I just commented on this on another thread - we do not dock leave banks for partial days. We are lucky in that our salaried employees typically go too far the other way and work an awful lot. This is a way of providing some benefit to being salari…
-
Yes, welcome to the forum! The only caution I have is regarding your specific policy (which you may not have - and you will want to get!) - how do you handle exempt employees who work partial days and plan a partial vacation day? Do you require th…

Hmm, I hate to see posts with no responses. I don't know if this will get you anywhere or not, but I have a cousin in Chicago that works for a company that may be able to help. Their web site is [url]http://www.iorworld.com/[/url]. Or, they may b…

If you do a search or look back through the archives, you'll find this has been discussed a few times and maybe you can get some more ideas there. I use my state department of labor, they have it available online.

Nae, if we confused you then I bet we confused a lot of people. Leo's post and my 2nd post refer to non-exempts only (sorry for the threadjack, rroberts). I think you're right on - exempts receive their salary and you can call it holiday pay or wh…
-
Federal law doesn't provide for holiday pay, so it is either state law or employer's discretion. We tried a similar policy but I think we're throwing it out the window on our next revision because it isn't much of a problem for us, and we didn't wa…
